Beowulf(poem and Grendel(book) comparison

counterparts: he has a high level of intelligence, as well as a human capacity for both emotion and philosophy. As the text is written in the first person point of view through Grendel's eyes, one gets a quite good picture of him. Unfortunately he is fighting with the inevitable. He keeps attacking and eating the Danish warriors simply because his instincts tell him to do so. He cannot help it; he is still a beast and not his own master. Beowulf undergoes as radical a transformation as Grendel does. The Beowulf of "Grendel" is uncannily superhuman. He is not only supremely strong, but also a cold, mechanical being.

Other people find validation of their own observations in the book. From time to time I meet people who know the Hero's Journey well although they may never have heard it called by that name. W h e n they read about it or hear it described, they experience the pleasurable shock of recognition as the patterns resonate with

The success of the festival led to more choirs and bands being organised in Estonia. The following year the society would found the first amateur theatre. Dr. Friedrich Reinhold Kreutzwald (1803-1882) was the compiler of the national epic poem, Kalevipoeg, the first Estonian literary work to achieve international recognition, published in sequels between 1857 and 1861; he was a strong influence on the young Estonian intellectuals, a writer, a practising physician, and a member of foreign societies (the Finnish Literary Society and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences). Dr. Karl August Hermann (1851-1909) was a philologist, the most prominent figure in the music life during the National Awakening, and the publisher of the first
